It has the main advantage that it integrates smoothly with the game, i.e. SWBFSpy is a community project to re-create online multiplayer (by making available an alternative master server, which is the essential part that makes online multiplayer work see section Technical details if you are interested). This holds for the Steam and GoG version of the game as well as the retail version (bought as a CD/DVD).īesides the alternatives discussed below there is also the official re-enabled online multiplayer exclusively for the Steam/GoG version, which however suffers from some problems (also explained later). There are a number of possible ways to still play the original Star Wars Battlefront II online. If you have the Steam/GoG version read also the section Steam/GoG official online multiplayer. TL DR: The recommended way to play Star Wars Battlefront II online is a community-project called SWBFSpy.
